Use this Balkan Medical Journal template when the manuscript has to match that journal before you upload it.
It is the writing shell for Balkan Medical Journal: title and authors, the abstract, the body, declarations, figures, and the reference list.
A Balkan Medical Journal submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, an abstract, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list, and figures and tables.
Open the journal's current author guide before you upload.
The sections a Balkan Medical Journal submission is built from, in order: title page, abstract, keywords, main text, declarations, references, figures, and tables. It does not replace the journal's own checklist.
